I use a Patriot 105 an a Krome, I prime, seal, and varnish with the 105. I use my Krome .2 needle to base coat and do cloaks at different angle's like this angel. I use a badger aspire 910 air compressor. I use Reaper Paints thin down with Awsome Paint Job's airbrush thinner, you can find the formula on youtube on Les site, no problem with clogs, get a little tip dry, no problem with an old paint brush, water and damp paper towel. You need to practice a little to get comfortable with the airbrush. It just another tool to save time an is fun.

alternative to paper towels and spray primer question/airbrush
warped72 replied to gr33n's topic in Tips & Advice: Painting
I use a badger patriot 105 to prime, varnish, and seal the deal on figurines. I use a badger krome to base coat and do blends on cape, robes, and weapons. Airbrush reaper paints and also use Minitaire paints, there great too. Have many bad experience with can primer an sealers. you can control that problem with the airbrush, I got my set up for around $350, 2 airbrushes an tanked air compressor. Once you learn how to use it, it becomes another great tool. And using a airbrush is not cheating haters, because if that's cheating so is using a W&N S7 brush or any top end sable. -

2014 Year of the Giants contest rules and questions
warped72 replied to Inarah's topic in Exchanges and Contests
If you read the rules Heisler you can do other figs than just giants, was just trying something different, big but not a giant thats all , take a chill pill or spliff it up. I tell you what Heisler you pick the Giant fig and I'll buy it and paint it for the contest{ mind you I have a $25 budget for the fig}. Thanks for the fast reply, long live Reaper. -

2014 Year of the Giants contest rules and questions
warped72 replied to Inarah's topic in Exchanges and Contests
Are these figures eligible for the contest, single 03322; Efreeti Emir for the diorama 14632; Kargir Tundra Beast Rider. An in the diorama the big figure would be reaper but can the other figure's be be from another company or only reaper for the just reaper figs. Thanks keep up the great work -
I also have a Badger TC-910 aspire, its works great can push up to 56 PSI, When painting figs or bases I only run around 18 PSI, the compressor does make noise but not enough to wake most, Go to either Amazon or CAS, should be able to get around $200 or less.

anybody use reaper MSP for airbrushing?
warped72 replied to warped72's topic in Tips & Advice: Painting
So I have recently did some airbrushing with my new gravity feed AB and used Reaper MSP. watered down with a mixture of 80% distilled water an 20% lexatex Slo-dri, 8-5 ratio slo-dri to paint. used Beacon Yellow based coated, worked great in two nice coats. The paint flowed great, very glad about this thinkin of buying those new Badger paints but after the results of the MSP thinkin jus save my money. Another great thing use an paint brush stir paint in the cup workss great not alot of paint lose -

Buy direct from Reaper or local Hobby/game shop?
warped72 replied to warped72's topic in Reaper General & Faq's
Update: called my FLGS, been almost three weeks now since I placed my order, and they said they got 1 of my orders in, the vulture, actually ordered familar pack 8, has vulture in it. when I got there it was wrong order, it was just some vulture dude with a sword, he was cool but not what I ordered, so she said she whould look through the other stuff that had come in so I figured I go see if they had any new stock in, they did. To my surprise, they had the biker dude stubbs I ordered on the rack, look more and the familar pack 8 was there also, I just started laughing everyone in the store looked at me, so I WENT UP TO THE GIRL RUNNING THE STORE AT THE TIME AND SAID HERE'S MY STUFF IS WAS ON THE RACKS FOR SALE BACK THERE. So they forgot to contact me, 2 they put the stuff I ordered on there racks, no real reason on what happened oh well think I'm done with them now! oh well, just bought the new paint line for DP9,ordered direct from reaper on Wed. got here today Sat. I think trying to help some stores is just a big headache, oh well again, just makes me alittle sad, the days of realible FLGS in my area are gone online all the way. -
